linen@park resorts on a sun holiday

Options
Hi we got a sun holiday at a park resort camp in august, we got to pay the balance in a couple of days on the payment screen it says we can pay a fee for linen and beds made on arrival, if I don't pay for this I am right in thinking that we would still get the linen?

TIA
Take every day as it comes!!

    If you don't pay the bedding charge you have to take your own duvet covers, pillowcases etc

    On our Sun Hol recently we had not paid for bedding, and took our own.
    When i was checking in at reception, i was told that we had been given bedding, and not only that but our beds were made up.
    Now that's what i call a nice upgrade:D

    the rule of thumb is if you dont pay then take your own, because the one time you dont, they won;t have provided any.

    I;ve been on several sun hols where I've not paid and linen has been provided but it isn't always.

    You can hire a linen pack for £15 when you get there. I don't know if that is cheaper?

    Park Resorts have beds made upon arrival thats there policy for all grades , so chances are you bed will be made up on a Sun holiday,the cleaners wont know who is going to be in the caravan next , they always have been made up when we have been to Park Resorts on a sun holiday , BUT always take our own just in case tho !

    Worth remembering. Thanks for the tip:) Our sun hol a few weeks ago was with Parkdean, so perhaps they are are doing the same thing as well!
    Also, i had paid for two activity passes for the kids, but not the adults, but got four given to me anyway! This is the second time this has happened:cool:

    We've just stayed at a Park Resort booked through the Mail.
    The beds were not made up, but there were duvets and pillows. We brought our own duvet and pillow covers and sheets. It does actually say in the t+cs that all linen is included UNLESS you booked through a newspaper offer.

    our holiday in April and last august were via the mail/breakfree/sun and were made up on arrival, like i say its worth taking linen just in case

    just returned from a park resorts site and there wasn't linen!!!.
    There was a few bits hidden in a wardrobe, but not enough for the whole party.
    I used a double sheet in the main bed room, a single sheet and double duvet cover as a sheet in the twin, think there was a couple of pillow cases too.

    We'd taken our own, pillowcase and our sleepingbags, so we was ok.

    But like I said before if you dont pay for it then be prepared for the worst!!!! We' would've been stuffed if we hadnt taken our sleepingbags

    We've also just been to a park resorts site on the Sun promotion. We didn't get bedlinen ( brought our own) but the caravan was privately owned, so that might be the reason.
